Ah yes, the Americanized import "Takeshi's Castle"
Must admit, the dub over was HILARIOUS! xD

"Let's get it on!"

Watch out for the Safety Sludge!

The puns and the innuendo came thick and fast. I managed to grab the entire series on DVD. The show never fails to make me laugh.

Ah, sweet nostalgia.

there is a new one... i cant remember the name

I know that a series called Wipeout tried to imitate MXC, but everything was padded.

still hurts

We got this dubbed in our country too! 5 PM show if i recalled correctly

OMG I miss that show so much. It was stupid and hilarious!!!

Yes it was! And here's more than six hours of it!

used to watch it all the time

Same here!

(* shrugs *)

Must have been long after my time; never even heard of it. Then again, if it was on cable we had very limited channel selections (still do).

Yeah, it was on cable.

It started life as one of those humiliating Japanese game shows; some weirdo Americans redubbed and edited it. The sexual innuendos, double entendres, and the names for the various characters (Guy Le Douche, etc.) made it hilarious.

With all the members of the Babaganoosh family.

Absolutely!

This was gloriously funny.

It was a great series.

hot dog this is history on tv!
